Hi,
I'm using Nagios 2.4 and I think I found a bug that concerns the
inheritance of the parameter "notification_options".
Here my definitions:
define service{
name nocontact-generic-service
is_volatile 0
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 4
retry_check_interval 1
notification_interval 240
notification_period 24x7
notification_options w,r,c
register 0
}
define service{
name XYZ-generic-service
contact_groups XYZgroup
register 0
use nocontact-generic-service
}
define service {
hostgroup_name XYZ-SSH-Server
service_description CHECK_PROCS_BY_SSH
use XYZ-generic-service
check_command check_by_ssh!procs
}
I assumed that the options from nocontact-generic-service are inherited
by XYZ-generic-service and than inherited by XYZ-SSH-Server.
That is why I only put notification_options w,r,c in
nocontact-generic-service. But actually it turns out that the
notification_options for the services XYZ-SSH-Server are not "w,r,c" but
"w,u,r,c" (I see this in the web-frontend in "view config" and I also
get notified on unknown service states).
This does not happen when I explicitly add "notification_options w,r,c"
to XYZ_generic-service or XYZ-SSH-Server.
It's not a problematic bug, but I think it doesn't work as intended.
regards,
Volker
